About the Future Skills Programme
- The skills programme will result in a total of 11,450 technicians in Jaguar Land Rover retailers around the world trained in electrification over the next one-to-three years
- The company aims to deliver training for thousands of apprentices in the next three years, so the next generation has key skills including electrification and autonomous driving. This is in addition to nearly 10,000 Jaguar Land Rover and franchised retailer apprentices already in training around the world
- Jaguar Land Rover already has one of the largest apprenticeship populations in the UK automotive sector and, through the Jaguar Land Rover Academy, invests approximately £20m each year in lifelong learning and development, with apprentices support the delivery of the company’s future vehicles learning key skills in autonomous driving and electrification
- Another 249 UK based employees trained in data skills across the same period, in addition to the 1,890 staff members already upskilled in data capabilities
About Jaguar Land Rover electrification
- Across our range of Jaguar and Land Rover vehicles we have a portfolio of electrified products, with every new and refreshed model line offering fully electric, plug-in hybrid or mild hybrid variants. Customers can choose from eight plug-in hybrid options and 11 mild hybrid options, as well as our multi award-winning, battery electric Jaguar I-PACE.
- Jaguar will become a pure-electric luxury brand from 2025, realising its unique potential. In the next five years, Land Rover will welcome six all-electric variants. As an electric-first business, by the end of the decade every one of our models will be available as full BEV
About Jaguar Land Rover: Reimagining the future of modern luxury by design
Jaguar Land Rover’s Reimagine strategy is delivering a sustainability-rich vision of modern luxury by design.
Our class-leading, modern luxury Range Rover, Discovery, Defender and Jaguar vehicles are in demand around the world, with over 370,000 sold in 123 countries during fiscal year 2021/22. Electrified models accounted for around two thirds of units sold, thanks to a model range that embraces fully electric and hybrid electric technologies, as well as the latest petrol and diesel engines.
We are transforming our business to become carbon net zero across our supply chain, products and operations by 2039 and have set a roadmap to reduce emissions across our own operations and value chains by 2030 through approved, science-based targets. Electrification is central to this strategy, and all Jaguar and Land Rover nameplates will be available in pure electric form by the end of the decade.
At heart we are a British company, with two major design and engineering sites, three vehicle manufacturing facilities, an Engine Manufacturing Centre and a Battery Assembly Centre in the UK. We also have vehicle plants in China, Brazil, India, Austria and Slovakia, as well as seven technology hubs across the globe.
As a wholly owned subsidiary of Tata Motors since 2008, Jaguar Land Rover has unrivalled access to leading global players in technology and sustainability within the wider Tata Group.
